About Germany
Germany doesn't seem to have the same possibilities as a first name as other countries and continents do. It's unlikely to become another Asia or Africa, India or Ireland. But it is used for small numbers of boys and girls each year in the US.
Germany for boys
It's unlikely to become another Asia or Africa, India or Ireland. But there was an early football player, credited with inventing the position of linebacker, who was known by the name Germany – Germany Schulz. In his case, Germany was a nickname for Adolph.
Pronounced GUR-muh-nee.
As of October 2026, Germany ranked #3415 for girls in US births in 2025 and #12889 for boys in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #3515 for boys in 1986.
